Leaf Necklace, 2007Today I broke out Dave's camera (he says it's ours--a Canon 30D Digital SLR), and the macro ring flash I bought him for Christmas, and took some pictures of a couple pieces of jewelry. I'll be taking more tomorrow, with a tripod this time :) The macro flash gives a nice illusion of daylight, which is rare during winter here in Portland.
As for the pieces, the Leaf Necklace (above) is the culmination of all of the leaf multiples I made. There are also earrings, brooches, and a necklace waiting to be made, but they will have to wait until after commissions are done.
The poppy earrings (below) were commissioned by orchidnoon on Etsy. She asked for a pair of earrings reminiscent of my poppy sculpture and this is what we came up with :) I will be blackening them tomorrow (with more pics to follow of the final product) before sending them out.

Those earrings are the cutest!
ReplyDeleteI just came across your blog and found it interesting that you were a Chandler. I come from a Chandler family in Surfside Beach, SC. The name isn't THAT common, so I thought I'd say HELLO! Also, my aunt Brenda (who was a Chandler before marriage) is also a jeweler :) Small world...
